About this property

DownStairs with Great back yard for kiddos

  • The cottage we are advertising and scheduling here is the SANDSHACK listing #4086494, and is a 2 BR / 1 bath just an easy 2 minute walk to the beach. It is at ground level and you will be greeted by the Folly Mermaid mural on the wall outside the front door to remind you where you need to be. You will have the biggest yard on our property and it is fully fenced for your exclusive use to hang out and feel the morning sunshine with your coffee, or relax in the shade after a long day in the sun. It has its own outdoor shower to rinse the sand from your toes and the sunscreen from your back. The yard is great for little kids to play in and be fully contained. And.. you’ve got your own gas grill to fire up and feed your brood after a fun-filled day at the beach. Inside there is lots of charm and beach feel decor at no extra charge as this unit has all new beach-style furnishings, and tile floors. The open floor plan to the kitchen is great for for casual gatherings after your day at the beach and has a separate door to access your back yard. A fully stocked kitchen awaits you with all the utensils etc., a full stove, microwave, and dishwasher. This 2 BR features a large master with king bed, local art work, and shabby chic charm. The second bedroom has 2 twin beds for the kids, or in a pinch you can roll them together for a cozy couple. The bathroom has all new tile and marble custom shower, and a true throne motif in play as you step up to the shower. Super clean no allergens, pet dander etc as we do not allow pets. Smart TV, WIFI , and off street parking for 1 vehicle included. Folly Beach makes no judgment on who you are or where you come from...just bring your flip flops and come as you are. Call me with any and all other questions as we have so much more to offer and tell you about our property.

Quick vacation

Our stay was great and Katherine was easy to work with for booking and meeting us at the apartment when we checked in. The apartment was nicer than we expected which added to our enjoyable vacation. It was a short easy walk to the beach. Our Homeaway confirmation said our check out time was 11 only to find Katerine telling us check out was at 10. Wish communication could have been clearer.

Perfect Beach Vacation

The property was quaint and perfect for our little family of four's needs. The tiled floors meant that any messes as little post-beach feet padded around could easily be mopped up, and the fenced in backyard was perfect for the kids to run around in safely while we enjoyed the shade. There was enough room to squeeze a Pack N Play into a corner of the master bedroom. Bonus - the beach was a block and a half away down level streets and never super crowded in the mornings. The waves were mild enough for our littlest to handle (when held) and our older child to boogie board on. Downtown Folly Beach was only a few blocks away (although tough in the August afternoon heat) and the delicious restaurant options were numerous. When rain came, we were only a 20- to 30-min drive from Charleston for all the museums and the SC Aquarium. All in all, a perfect vacation made better by a snug home base. Check out The Crab Shack and Taco Boy in town; Gillie's Seafood & Soul Food, LOLO's and Lewis BBQ towards Charleston. In addition, go to see the sun rise over Morris Lighthouse - the walk is short and the view is breathtaking!

Wonderful Location on Folly Beach SC

The rooms were very clean, bright, cheerful, and lovely! Extremely close to the beautiful Folly Beach. Everything we needed for a short weekend stay (I wish it were longer!). Owners responded quickly to texts, check-in and check-out were super easy. We walked across two roads to get to the beach, but they were both small and quiet roads, so no worries about dodging a bunch of loud traffic! My husband and I had two teen girls with us and they were both very happy with our stay (hard to make teen girls happy in my experience so this was great!). Perfect location, clean and cozy rooms, I will Definitely stay here again the next time we vacation at Folly Beach!

Great location and very clean!

The Mermaid Cottage is located close to the beach and we also walked downtown a few times during our stay. Bert's is an easy walk to get some free coffee as well. The small yard that comes with the property had beautiful flowers and would be great for toddlers. We had fun just relaxing and using the grill. The place was super clean and had everything you needed for a good time! I would say that if you are super sensitive to noises and lights, it might not be the best choice for you as it is a bottom level apartment and there are outside lights that shine in the bedroom at night. But I would stay here again. The hostess was super nice and helpful and we enjoyed our stay immensely!!

A great stay...

Great location to the beach. Enough space for four of us because we spent most of our time at the beach and on Center Street. Katt was wonderful and made sure we were happy during our stay. I’d stay again but I’d check out the upstairs apartment to avoid the normal noise you hear from being in the bottom floor.

Perfect beach getaway!

We were in search of the perfect beach house to explore Folly Beach and Charleston and we hit the jack pot! We had a great time at The Rathershack! Katherine met us upon our arrival. She gave us a tour of the unit and answered any questions we had. She was the perfect host! The house was immaculate, stocked with all the amenities of home. I loved the beach decore! We even had a perfectly manicured yard with and outdoor shower, grill and outdoor dining table. The house was so close to everything! A short walk to the beach, souvenir shops, a variety of restaurants and bars! We ventured out to Charleston to tour the city and even took in a ballgame at the Charleston Riverdogs Stadium. I would definitely recommend the Rathershacks and Folly beach to everyone. We would love to go back!
